I just don't know the answer yet as to how long a ship will stay in any one neighbour's seaport.
Am in France but have lots of neighbours from Australia, New Zealand and in the Americas - we all have to sleep and work at some point.

So it's a bit pointless having the neighbours click on the ships then... You can't choose which neighbourss and if s/he is away on holiday it will be stuck in their port for a week and then magically father christmas style visit every port in no time flat and return to you...

Hi NooNoo,

Your neighbours are the ones that load the products on to the ship. That how you get products. If the ship gets stuck at a port and the seven days have passed it will return to you with whatever it has managed to be loaded with.

But I can't choose neighbours or block a neighbour temporarily while they are on holiday... how is that fair or even logical?

I can't even directly message them because it uses the farmer name and not the FB name. This really hasn't been thought through.

And if the neighbour doesn't do ships so is never going to look in the ship tool?

This is the feedback forum. I am giving Feedback. Perhaps Raul can read the feedback thread???

Question about the loading of neighbors ships. Does the person loading these neighbors ships get anything from loading them? tyvm

Hi R and S Farms,

It hasn't been mentioned in the notes about the ships. It might be worth you asking this in the new release thread where the developers will see it and then they might add to their notes if they do.

can we have more than 1 ship on the same farm like trains, like 1 of each color or do they each need to be on their own farm?

Hi storm36

Yes, you can have all 7 cargo ships on the same farm if you want

I wish they had a start all button to start all containers being loaded in twelve hours and we had another twelve hours to dispatch it. It would be so much easier for those who work during the day and not being able to be on a desktop to load each container every hour.
I love the idea of the ships.

Also, do we have to get each one of the ships or can we like hit up the other colors and not care about the other colored ships?
